Since there is no collusion, but since the investigation is catching actual Russian spies, wouldn't it be Trump's duty, nay his desire, to try and arrest all those Russian spies who obviously tried to set him up? I mean if he is innocent, why is he trying to shut down the investigation? It might lead back to crooked Hillary after all.

Nexzus:I posed this in the twitter thread below, but makes more sense here I guess: wasn't there supposed to be a big announcement from Jacob Awhowl regarding a sexual assault allegation against Mueller?

Yeah, they tried it last week and it was a total shiatshow. Wohl's buddy had the zipper down on his suit pants. The "accuser" didn't show at the last minute (surprise surprise) and the evidence they showed of her arriving at DC airport, but then panicking and taking a different flight was actually proven to be a photo of Wohl's girlfriend at LAX.

It was such a horrible failure that not even the wing nuts ran with it

Thank you all. Yeah, I watched the inanity unfold last week. But I could have sworn that even after the lame "press conference" and the fake photo, they were still doubling down with the "real" accuser coming forth today.

Why hasn't the Wall Street Journal article about tying Trump to the payoff of Stormy gotten any more traction here? It looks like a legit article from a less than liberal newspaper. It seems pretty damning to me, but I dont know...other outlets dont seem to be picking up. What are they waiting for?

born_yesterday:Grungehamster: Three judge panel requests Mueller write up what impact Whitaker will have on his investigation.

Why would you ask Mueller and not the assholes actually determining what they're going to do?

Because Mueller is in their court not Whitaker. Stone et al are using the same ''Mueller is a principal officer so he needs Senate approval" that Manafort tried and failed, in part because Rosenstein was a principal officer in that scenario. With Whitaker taking over for Rosenstein, this argument is undermined so Mueller has to justify that nothing has actually changed with Sessions out and Whitaker in.

Why yes: this does mean that Trump appointing Whitaker despite a lack of authority to will severely undermine Mueller's ability to go after Trump's allies because of a mechanism designed in part to prevent DOJ giving preferential treatment to the president's allies.

Late breaking. Other papers going to have to do a lot of legwork to verify/crosscheck all the investigative stuff that WSJ did.

The longer this runs, the more of Mueller's investigation comes to light the more convinced I am that Trump becoming President was a good thing.

Now before you pile on me listen.It's becoming very clear that the Russians have had deep spies in our government for a long time. Trump's camp was them most brazen and did enough to get noticed and investigated. I honestly believe that we will have a surprisingly high number of traitors brought to light with this investigation. I also won't be surprised if it's not just R's that get wrangled.

Let the man do his job, I can't wait to see what kind of Russian crap he'll be able to net!

/ or is that Russian Carp?// Nope, was right the first time, Crap/// Mueller does this right and his name goes down in history as one of the greatest Americans of all time

Keep him cooped up in Russia and other non-extradition countries. No more billionaire yacht orgy parties in Monaco and the Greek islands. No more ski trips to the Alps. No more Champion's League Final owner's box parties.

Plus, go after any money he has invested in the West.

Not as satisfying as throwing him in prison, but squeezing his lifestyle and bank accounts, with an American indictment hanging over his head for the next couple of decades, is probably the best to expect when dealing with a billionaire oligarch.
